Accent, Sonata, Tib, Elantra??? I need advice - Hyundai Performance Forums

ok right now i have my 2k1 tib.. i love it.. but for somea reason i want to find a 1997 accent in a junkyard with a blown motor in it.. do the beta swap and make it into a show car..... plus i just love the kits for the accents and they dont cost near as much as the tiburon kits.... soo im wondering if any of the other older hyundai's are the same... as far a part availability and whatnot. also im wondering whats hard to find for each model so if i decide to go with something other than a first gen tib then i need to know what i can and cant get... im wondering what everone's thoughts are on this

i'm partial to the 1997 accents of course

for parts availability and what not what do you want? i suggest you read through all the other car specific forums and see what you can find.

I don't know about show cars, but I'm thinking about building a cheap fast car by getting a '93-'95 Elantra and dropping in a 4G63. They just bolt right in.

Just drop the whole engine/tranny in as one unit. The 4G63 is the '90-'98 Eclipse Turbo motor.
